Music Reviews

By Claire Faulkner The Goldman Ensemble thrilled a packed Nantwich audience when they performed ‘Piano Recital (Piano Not Included)’ at The Players Theatre. The four musicians possess a distinct character and different instruments to produce an amazing quartet.

By Claire Faulkner I’ll be honest, I never really thought opera was my first love when it came to the theatre. However, at some point during the performance of ‘Rigoletto’ at Nantwich Civic Hall, I found myself completely immersed in the story and those performing it on stage.

Nantwich Jazz and Music Festival organisers have hailed the 2012 event another huge success with more than 40,000 people visiting the town. The four-day event over the Easter weekend proved another hit with pub landlords, shops, restaurants and hotels all benefitting.

Crewe Amateur Musicals Society brought the swinging 60’s back to The Lyceum this week with their production of ‘Sweet Charity’, writes Claire Faulkner. Directed by Fiona O’Connor, this musical was packed full of fun with great dance routines and live music.

People flocked into The Lyceum to support the Centenary Celebration Show in aid of the Christie Hospital, writes Claire Faulkner. Compere Stu Francis led the audience through a wonderful variety show of local talent at last night’s show (November 20).
